i got almost the entire system put in i dont really know too much about the different ways to wire up a sub but everyone tell me different ways to do it. i have 1 15" sub that id dual 6ohms and it is bridged to an 2 channel amp what is the best way to wire it all so it will sound the best?

whatever way u choose, u should buy a small NOS tank, and hook it up to that...that way when u enter sound compitions, if u start to lose, just spray that bitch with like a 100db shot...and ull win. thats what my buddy did in his miata.

wire it in parallel. that will make it a 3ohm load. Can your amp handle a 3ohm load?

without power ratings from the amp and sub this thread is worthless.

ITS A JLW3 OR W6 Back in the day people had one two subs JLaudio found a way to make them have 3 subs at a final load of 4 ohms. they made a dual 6 ohms sub

Never knew audiobahn subs came in dual 6 ohm. Learn something new everyday...
